Ascension means a 4-day weekend for Thomas, feels like a mini-vacation. Lovely, despite a lot of translation work. Before it began on Wednesday afternoon, we went to Loup's 4th bday party, and thus begins the long string of everybody turning 4.
Above: Estelle below left, in the Ben & Jerry's tye-dye, ripping open her back from the "fishing game" with prizes. Note Eliott's concentration mastering the fishing rod. Below: Ah, desserts and champagne. On a Wednesday at 4 p.m. Love France.
Diabetic? Don't look:
Marie looking at me thinking the same thing I am: bathtime will be nasty tonight.
This is Louise, 7 weeks Léna's senior, yet just a little puff of a girl. Léna is like a fat shriner next to her.
Eliott's grandparents visiting from Holland. Who speak perfect English, like their daughter. Oma (grandmother in Dutch) is the youngest of 10. We were INSTANT friends. INSTANT. Léna liked having adoptive grandparents there.
Once again, we'd like to state it for the record: no lice. Free at last, free at last, thank God almighty....
Out of this chubby's way:
Here's fun with a balloon, with Estelle and Thomas in the background playing with Estelle's imaginary classmates whom you can hear Thomas "scolding".
